Q-PAC to Join AMCA: Announces Construction of AMCA 270 Airflow Tunnel

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Q-PAC, the leader in multimotor plenum fans, is proud to announce that it will officially be joining the Air Movement and Control Association (AMCA) International. The move marks a significant step forward in Q-PAC's ongoing mission to create the world's smartest fan for commercial air handlers.

As part of its commitment to simplifying airflow, Q-PAC is also breaking ground on the construction of a state-of-the-art AMCA 270 airflow tunnel, which will be operational in the fall of this year. This facility will meet AMCA's 270 testing standards, pushing the boundaries of airflow measurement accuracy and reliability for multimotor plenum fans.

Joining AMCA reinforces Q-PAC's position as the leader in the design and manufacturing of multimotor plenum fans and places them alongside other leaders in air movement technology. Through AMCA membership, Q-PAC will actively participate in shaping and driving global standards that define the future of HVAC airflow. It also reinforces its dedication to third-party verification, product performance integrity, and industry-wide best practices.

"We've created a new type of fan, and the industry is skeptical. We acknowledge that. However, we're out to prove this isn't just a claim. Joining AMCA and building this airflow tunnel are the first steps in proving that building owners deserve a better fan. The fact that new air handlers are shipping with 50-year-old technology is insane.  The industry deserves better, and multimotor plenum fans and Q-PAC are forging a new path." said Q-PAC's CEO, Matt Kent. "Joining AMCA and certifying our fan will change how fans are measured. We don't believe extrapolating the performance of a single ECM plug-fan gives an accurate representation of how a fan with multiple motors operates. Our mission is to have experimentally tested data to prove performance."

Q-PAC is investing in more than just testing infrastructure, they're investing in the future of airflow. This state-of-the-art tunnel will provide unmatched capabilities in airflow analysis and fan system development, offering insights that fuel Q-PAC's ongoing quest to build the world's smartest fan for commercial air handlers. The lab will provide the ability to test a multitude of MPF configurations ranging from 2,000 to 70,000 CFM for a single fan.

This investment will help ensure every Q-PAC fan is designed with the highest level of precision and is prepared to meet the complex demands of modern HVAC systems, especially in critical applications like healthcare, education, and office buildings where comfort is key.
